Items related to Inside Vogue: My Diary Of Vogue's 100th Year
The secret diary of Vogue Editor-in-Chief Alexandra Shulman and the real story behind the BBC TV ABSOLUTELY FASHION documentary.
'One of the great social diaries of our time . . . should become a classic.' Sunday Times
'Eye-popping, brilliantly candid' Evening Standard
What a year for Vogue! Alexandra Shulman reveals the emotional and logistical minefield of producing the 100th anniversary issue (that Duchess of Cambridge cover surprise), organizing the star-studded Vogue 100 Gala, working with designers from Victoria Beckham to Karl Lagerfeld and contributors from David Bailey to Alexa Chung. All under the continual scrutiny of a television documentary crew.
But narrowly-contained domestic chaos hovers - spontaneous combustion in the kitchen, a temperamental boiler and having to send bin day reminders all the way from Milan fashion week. For anyone who wants to know what the life of a fashion magazine editor is really like, or for any woman who loves her job, this is a rich, honest and sharply observed account of a year lived at the centre of British fashion and culture.

Review:
One of the great social diaries of our time . . . should become a classic. (Sunday Times)
Eye-popping, brilliantly candid. (Evening Standard)
Shulman is particularly good on insightful character sketches . . . she is also happy to reveal occasional flashes of her own character and insecurities. (Sunday Express)
Completely compelling . . . fascinating . . . refreshingly unfiltered . . . reminds you what a good writer she is. (GQ)
[Shulman] writes surprisingly frankly . . . a funny, pacy book. (Hadley Freeman Guardian)
Candid, introspective, generous and witty (Nicky Haslam Spectator)
A witty corrective to the BBC's rather flaccid documentary . . . Shulman's skill for casual self-deprecation and the unfiltered wry aside offer a far more nuanced insight into the mammoth task of managing brand Vogue. (Financial Times, ‘Best Books of 2016’)

Editor in chief Alexandra Shulman kept a diary of Vogue's centenary year. And what an emotional and logistical minefield of a year: producing the 100th anniversary issue (that Duchess of Cambridge cover surprise), organizing the star-studded Vogue 100 Gala, working with designers such as Victoria Beckham and Karl Lagerfeld and contributors such as David Bailey and Alexa Chung while under the constant scrutiny of a TV documentary crew.
But narrowly contained domestic chaos hovers - spontaneous combustion in the kitchen, and who will remember to put the bins out during Milan fashion week? A rich, personal, honest and sharply observed account of life lived at the centre of British fashion and cultural life.
